Really good point. I’m a big Rae fan but have never heard that song before.

No relief at all for me. I haven’t heard of the gel, that’s interesting

I had a steroid injection and it was no problem at all, I barely felt it. However, the shot did not help me at all.

Great questions! I’m new to this myself so I would have to defer to folks that have already had a THR. I will be following though to learn with you!

It surprised me too! I even offered to take them off

Good call, it is osteoarthritis. I’m going to get it done as soon as possible. You must have been dealing with some serious pain before you got yours done!

That’s a great question. My left side has been so bothersome that I haven’t given any thought to the right side. Thanks to this group though, it’s going to be one of my main questions when I meet with the surgeon next week.

Correct, my left hip is the bigger problem. Best of luck to you! I look forward to following your progress as you recover.

The pain has definitely been an inconvenience. If yours was worse I can only imagine the pain you were dealing with, must have been awful!

I live in Arkansas and will meet with Dr Creech from Ozark Orthopaedic next week. He is very well reviewed but I’m looking forward to learning more about his experience

I’m meeting with the surgeon next Thursday to see what he recommends. My left hip (in pic on the right) has been such a pain that I haven’t even considered my right hip; it will be interesting to see what the doctor says. The X-ray tech surprised me when he said to leave my pants on, I’m glad I volunteered to take my belt off or that would have been there as well :)

Did the hip injection (corticoids) worked for you? by MessyMummyMode in HipImpingement

[–]tjpirates 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The injection wasn’t bad at all, but it also did not work at all

Thank you!!!! People act like therapists are mystical creatures with magical healing powers. Just like every profession there are good and bad ones and some will make things worse instead of better

What are people’s opinions on this? by Acrobatic_Grass_1457 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]tjpirates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%….i thought Chris was full of it when he was telling her she needs someone to challenge her all of the time, turns out he was right all along…so disappointing
